Buckling analysis (SOL105) with multiple load cases

Setting aside the argumentation of whether it is meaningful at all to run a linear buckling analysis for multiple load cases, how to correctly model it?
 
In the case of a buckling analysis with only one subcase the analysis run without any issue. However, in the case of multiple subcases with different loads and same SPCs defined at scenario level, the error message:
 
*** USER FATAL MESSAGE 9025 (SUBDMAP PHASE0)
   THERE IS NO STATIC SUBCASE FOR BUCKLING ANALYSIS.
   USER ACTION: ADD STATIC SUBCASE(S).
 
Is it correct that for each buckling subcase a static subcase should be defined making effectively the number of subcases double?
